Recenzii

"The contributors to this volume document a vast structure of civil disabilities that lies beyond the gates of America's alarmingly distended prison system. This mostly invisible system operates to govern large segments of the American population, especially the poor, minorities, and non-citizens, in a form more similar to totalitarian dictatorship than to anything resembling a republican constitution. With the war on terror likely to imbed this system of absolutist rule more deeply into our political and legal institutions, the time for the widest possible discussion and debate on these issues is now." -- Jonathan Simon, Associate Dean, Jurisprudence and Social Policy Program, and Professor of Law, School of Law, University of California at Berkeley
"This is a book which challenges and disturbs. It demands to be read by those who place faith in increasingly punitive strategies, and those who seek to resist them." -- Dave Cowan, Professor of Law and Policy, University of Bristol
